Welcome!

Hi there! My name is Kelly. I'm a mother of 4 and a grandmother of 13 now! I've lived all over the country and even in Hawaii. Right now, I'm currently in Southeast Missouri. Throughout my adult life, I've wanted to find a forum of some sort that encourages other Christian women. I've found wonderful craft blogs, weight loss sites, motherhood sites, book clubs, etc. So I am going to try my hand at a blog that contains a little bit of everything. Grab a cup of coffee and let's chat!!

The Hal Lindsey Report 3/21/14

This week on 'The Hal Lindsey Report'Sharia
law is the legal system derived from the Koran and other writings held
as holy by Muslims. It is an oppressive, and sometimes barbaric, set of
rules and practices that enforces the role of Muslim men in a
male-dominated Islamic society.

It
treats women, children, minorities, and non-Muslims as second-class
citizens at best, and possessions, "domestic animals," or enemies at
worst.

Without
fail, societal observance of Sharia law ushers in general oppression
that can only be described as a supernatural darkness. For a nation to
accept Sharia as its governing influence means regression to a primitive
view of life that does not recognize the intrinsic value of each human
being as the unique creation of a Creator God.

Severed
hands and feet, backs and buttocks laid bare and bloody by the lash,
stonings to death, decapitations, genital mutilations, tongues carved
out, noses sliced off of faces, acid thrown in faces, and the list goes
on. These barbarous acts are not the stuff of fiction, they are
punishments proscribed by Sharia law. And their use is practiced in too
many countries in the world today.

It
absolutely dumbfounds me that women's rights advocates in "enlightened"
western nations tacitly approve, by their silence, the utterly barbaric
attitudes of Islam and Sharia toward women and children. The same goes
for LGBT activists who brazenly try to force their agenda on every
person in our society -- where they are already accepted and respected
-- yet clam up like rag dolls when it comes to opposing the practices of
Muslims.

Some
even imply they prefer Islam to Christianity. Of course, they voice
those opinions while safely ensconced in a Christian society where they
are loved and accepted for who they are. By the way, when a nation falls
under Sharia law rule, the gays are the first to feel the wrath of its
enforcers.

And
in a society that strictly observes Sharia, non-Muslims, even if they
receive the protection of the state, are forced to pay a tax (known as
'jizya') just for not being Muslim. Plus, they live under a strict
curtailment of their rights and privileges. And if they refuse to pay
up, they are either run out or executed.

No,
I'm not making this up. This is real. And it is what Muslims want when
they say they want an Islamic society under Sharia law. And most
importantly, it's not only what they want for themselves, but for
everyone else, too, Muslim or not.

This
is where Egypt was headed before the military stepped in and removed
the Muslim Brotherhood. This is where certain parts of Africa and the
Middle East are today. And this is where a city in Syria now finds
itself.

The
Syrian city of Raqqa, population nearing a quarter-million, was taken
into the control of a rebel faction known as "Islamic State in Iraq and
the Levant" (ISIL). It is so brutal that even al-Qaeda has disowned it.
The rebels established Sharia rule. Now, under threat of death,
Christians in Raqqa have to pay a tax of $1,000 per person. Poor
Christians are required to pay only $250. They cannot pray in public,
build new churches, or carry weapons (and they're on the frontlines of a
civil war). The Christians cannot even ring church bells. And they must
report any hint of threat to the Muslim powers in charge.

ISIL says that if Christians refuse to abide by these rules, "Nothing will remain between them and ISIL other than the sword."

This second class status for non-Muslims is called "dhimma." The Christians in Raqqa are living in "dhimmitude."

Did
you know that "dhimmitude" is coming to a nation near you? You may
think that Islam is confined to the "Middle East," but 62% of all
Muslims live OUTSIDE the Middle East. The last time I checked, 62%
constitutes a majority. That means the majority of Muslims live in
Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, and North America. In fact, some
analysts predict that certain European nations will be predominantly
Muslim as soon as 2050.

Lebanon
was once known as "the Switzerland of the East," and Beirut as "the
Paris of the Middle East." In 1926, it was 86% Christian. Today, Lebanon
is 34% Christian, 66% Muslim. Though it is slowly starting to rebound,
the last few decades have seen Lebanon and Beirut completely devastated
by civil war as the Muslims have sought to cleanse it of all Christian
influence.

"Multicultural"
European governments are seeing the same results because they have
allowed almost unimpeded immigration from Muslim nations. Now, as
violent demonstrations erupt in the capitals of Europe, with Muslims
demanding the implementation of Sharia, they are reeling.

Though
Paris has been the most prominent city rocked by these cultural
convulsions, England has seen its share. Yet, unbelievably, the British
are continuing to lead the Western world down the path of
Sharia-compliancy. The government has promoted Sharia-compliant
financial bonds and allowed the establishment of 85 Sharia courts.

What about North America? Well, there are no official Sharia courts here, yet, but theVancouver Sun
points out that the major sources of immigrants to Canada are Pakistan,
Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Iraq. In those countries, more than HALF
of Muslims agree with the concept of "honor killing." That's a
Sharia-accepted practice where the male members of a family are allowed
to murder female members whom they perceive to have "disgraced" the
family.

Can you imagine a Christian father murdering his daughter because she was seen holding hands with a boy? And doing it legally?

Folks,
this is real. This is now. This is where denial of Jesus Christ and our
Judeo-Christian values leads. This is what politically correct
"multiculturalism" yields. Isaiah lamented the fate of those "who call
evil, good, and good, evil; who put darkness for light, and light for
darkness...." (Isaiah 5:20) Is there a better description of Sharia law or an Islamic state? God, through Isaiah, pronounced "woe" upon them.

The
curtain is now falling on the Age of Grace. The ancient prophets of the
Bible predicted horrible conflicts in the times we are approaching.
Make no mistake, those conflicts are taking shape across the world as I
write these words.

That's
the bad news. The good news is that if you have been genuinely born
again, you won't be around to see the really bad stuff happen. We'll be
with Jesus Christ in our new heavenly home.

Romans 8:38-39

"And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord."
